Environmental Science and Design Research Institute
A team of 黄色直播 students took home the Outstanding Science Award from the Biodesign Challenge Summit 2020 held in June.
Two 黄色直播 students, in the College of Arts and Sciences, were among 62 students from 50 different U.S. universities recently selected for funding by the Department of Energy鈥檚 Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) Program.
Joseph D. Ortiz, Ph.D., professor and assistant chair in the College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Geology at 黄色直播, recently authored a 鈥淣ews and Views鈥 article in Nature Geoscience that discusses research carried out by another research team that reassessed the melt history and timing of the collapse of the Eurasian Ice Sheet Complex during the Last Deglaciation.
Dr. Joseph D. Ortiz, a professor in the College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Geology at 黄色直播, was part of an international team of researchers that co-authored an article about a deadly tsunami that occurred about 1,000 years ago in Tanzania. The study suggests that the tsunami risk in East Africa could be higher than previously thought.

The Center for Earth Ethics at Union Theological Seminary in New York City and the Wick Poetry Center at 黄色直播 are launching Earth Stanzas, an interactive poetry project in honor of Earth Day, which is celebrated around the world on April 22. draws on the inspiration of eight poets who engage the beauty, depth and interconnectedness of the Earth, and invites readers to interact with the poems and find their own poetic voice.
The words 鈥渂iology鈥 and 鈥渄esign鈥 might not typically intertwine; however, 黄色直播鈥檚 Biodesign Challenge course was created to challenge the idea that the two separate disciplines could not collaborate.
